Hevnsnt writes – “In part one of the “Hacking BetaBrite LED Signs” we exposed a gaping hole of the BetaBrite signs, using a common remote to change the text as we saw fit. In part two we will take a much more hardware hacking approach and construct a cable that enables us to communicate with these signs via our computer. From there what our signs display is pretty much endless. At the end of the following article you will be able to have a betabrite sign that can display RSS feeds like I-Hacked’s Or Edge’s!”Link.
